Due to the overwhelming amount of spam and virus email I am receiving
these days, I've had to change my email address.

I'm sorry that the following is available only in image format (you'll
have to type it in yourself), but I'm sure you'll understand.

I beg of you:

do not give this email address out

do not CC me on any public mailing list with this address

do not place this address in cleartext on any web page

Many thanks, and sorry for the inconvenience.

This is a graph of my incoming spam between January 2002 and
September 2003. The Y axis is a count of the number of messages caught
by Spam Assassin per day. Note that it is a log graph, ranging into
the high 6000's in the final days, mostly because of sobig or blaster
or whatever the virus-of-the-day was.
